For some reason I would like to know the probability of dealer getting 22. What I can find on the web is that of dealer bust, but not at specific point.

I would suggest you PM Switch, who knows exactly, since he owns the patent that uses that mechanism. He might tell you privately; he might not. It's his hard-won work product. Or it might be in Mike's Wizard of Odds page on Blackjack Switch or FreeBet; I leave the searching to you! :)

Ha, my page actually shows my post above yours even though your time stamp of the post is BEFORE mine =P. Must have been quite nearly the exact same time for that glitch to happen!

To quote Mike Shackleford himself on this (always a reputable source, - from his Zappit page:)
The dealer will get a 22 on 7.26% of all initial hands and 7.62% of hands where the dealer does not have a blackjack. These figures assume the dealer is forced to play out every hand, even if every player surrenders or busts first.

The Zappit page only mentions dealer hitting soft 17, but the 7.26% figure is for dealer standing on soft 17.

With hitting soft seventeen, assuming 70 dealer hands per hour, any idea how often a dealer will get 22, when he is showing a 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 ? Now that would seem brutal, especially if I had a few splits and double downs out there.
Darn that Switch. haha
